take JB's rhythm section,
then add hendrix's crazy lead guitars,
doo wop vocal chops,
jazz styled improvosation...
then throw in some weird keyboards
and a more than a dash of mysticism...
and you get something that sounds like exactly nothing else.
i've never heard a p-funk song and said, "that reminds me of _____ "
p-funk almost sounds like a genre
just by itself.
if i'm in the mood to hear p-funk,
there's no other band that i can go to.
